"The horse walk door is the brown one to the left at this house at 7 Leroy Street, a Federal-style beauty built in 1831.Behind this door is the horse walk, a narrow passageway through which a homeowner’s horse was led from the street to a separate carriage house or stable behind the main house."
Photo and text from Ephemeral New York, where it is noted that the carriage house accessible through door 7 1/2 is available for $16,000. Per month.
